Kindle Notes & Highlights
Even if I lived a thousand lives, my soul would seek yours out. No matter what form I take, what name I'm called by, or what part of the universe I'm designated to, it'd still belong to you. I'd still belong to you. I’d find you in the depths of the ocean, in the darkest part of the night—”
It’s like the moment I was in his presence everything in me just…relaxed. There was no pretext with him, no pretending or hiding, just the quiet, rare perfection of being known, of being seen for exactly who you are and being loved anyway.”
Do you know how rare that is? To find a man who not only wants to take accountability for what he did wrong but also wants to relieve you of the burden of carrying the hurt he caused you?”
“Not sweep it under the rug and tell you it never happened or that you overreacted. But carry it. Work every day to fix it. Pour enough love into you that you don’t even remember what it was like to hurt. That’s not the kind of man you run from, baby.”
He always looks at me just like this, like I’m his and he’s mine, and nothing else in the world matters except those two facts.
“I’ll beg, princess.” He murmurs, quivering lips pressed against black silk. “I’m not above it. My pride is one of the many things I’ll sacrifice to have you. And if I have to beg every day, I will. I'll spend my life on my knees with tears in my eyes and a million apologies on my tongue. Each one followed by a declaration of my unending love for you. The sun will rise and set a thousand times, and I'll still be kneeling before you, apologizing for being another man who disappointed you, another man who broke your trust."
